John Edwards: More Human Than Human

Former presidential candidate and son of mill worker, John Edwards, announced last week that he had a "liason" with a member of his campaign staff. It took great courage for Edwards to admit that he did something
"wrong" after he was caught red-handed doing it. He only kept it a secret this long in order to protect his wife and kids from shame and
embarrassment. If the sensationalist neocons at the National Enquirer had cared as much about Edwards' family as he does, he'd still be banging Reille Hunter in total secrecy.

But don't worry - although he had a "liason" with Hunter and possibly fathered a grandson of a mill worker, he doesn't love her. That would have been like "cheating" on his wife, and he's not a slimeball, you know. He's a human being, and human beings make human mistakes. In fact, the more such mistakes John Edwards makes, the more human he is. Bill Clinton, Jesse Jackson, and John Edwards are probably the most human people on Earth right now.

Compare them to George W. Bush. If the Shrub ever cheated on his wife, he's probably not cheating on her RIGHT now, and that only proves how inhuman he really is.

Perhaps mandrool could give the U.S. press some advice on what is news and what isn't. That this is even considered a topic for news is aburd from top to bottom. But it sure does deflect attention from ACTUAL issues, say, how most of the poopulation of Iraq wants the illegal U.S. occupation to end as soon as possible. You know, things like that.

The only way John Edwards could have been more human is if he came out as a cheater and a Gay American. Then, he would not only have the prettiest hair but he would be the most human of humans of all time.

Everyone knows the rules going in. Those stupid enough not to follow them, regardless their party, risk paying with their careers. The lack of self-control and judgement shown by politicians is staggering, regardless their party.

Is Georgia being invaded again? Can I burn Atlanta this time? Pleasepleasepleaseplease? I also want to march to the sea singing the song of the Volga River boatmen, followed by a rousing chorus of 'O Sole Mio.'
